Hi

 

I try to install an archet T4U (V3) on my PC (W10 64 bits). I dowload the latest drivers but W10 use its own drivers and I can't replace these drivers by TP-LINK drivers.

I noticed that PC is unable to boot correctly or to reboot when the T4U is plugged.

 

Can you explain to me how to install properly the T4U ?

 

Thanks

Okay so this is a pretty old thread but I figured someone else might run into this problem. When you uninstall the drivers, they apparently corrupt the device (at least according to the installation error message, which was unreadable). I fixed the problem by going into device manager, finding the T4U-adapter and uninstalling the drivers from there. 

 

 

After that the installation succeeded without errors.

Please go to control panel-programs and features to uninstall the driver for T4U.

 

Then you can download the driver from the official website as below:

You can watch the setup video to install it.

I uninstalled drivers 15 times (revo uninstaller)

 

The WIFI icon is missing even if the wifi key is recognized by my PC

Do you mean the wifi icon has gone even though you have selected it and enter the wifi password? 

 

With the adapter plugged in, please go to computer management-device manager-network adapters and check whether the T4U has been installed successfully. And please show us a picture of it. 

 

Meanwhile, please ensure that the WLAN AUTO CONFIG has been enabled. https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/56/

Note: The steps are the same, while it is called wlan auto config on Win10. 

 

With  the adapter installed, can you see the any wifi networks? Are you able to connect to it and access internet? 

 

If possible, try to change another computer to do a comparison analysis.
